What customers say

Customers consistently highlight the outstanding quality of the double shot legends, noting their crispness and excellent alignment, often comparing them favorably to top industry standards.

Know before you buy
The Cherry profile is widely considered the industry standard for mechanical keyboards. It features a sculpted, ergonomic shape that sits lower than OEM profiles, providing a comfortable, familiar typing experience that reduces finger fatigue during long sessions.
No, these keycaps are made from opaque ABS plastic and are not shine-through. If your keyboard has per-key RGB lighting, the light will not pass through the legends.
Keykobo uses high-quality, durable ABS plastic designed to withstand regular use. While ABS can develop a slight shine over time due to natural finger oils, it is favored by enthusiasts for its crisp sound profile and smooth, premium texture.
The base kit is designed for standard layouts, but Keykobo offers specific expansion kits for Numpad, Spacebars, and 40% keyboards. You should check your keyboard's bottom row and layout requirements against the available expansion kits to ensure a perfect fit.
The deep red hue is rich and saturated, appearing more vibrant in bright, natural light and taking on a darker, more sophisticated tone in dim or warm indoor lighting. It is a versatile colorway that adds a warm, elegant aesthetic to most desk setups.
